Semua Bab Abigail's Absent Husband Is A CEO: Bab 781 - Bab 790

When she heard Xander was helping her again, Abigail felt happy and cozy inside. "Thanks for helping me. But I can handle Daisy on my own. No need for you to step in."Xander asked, "And how do you plan to handle her?"Abigail giggled and said, "I can't beat her in a fight, and I probably can't win if we pull each other's hair. So I'll have to fight her the way she does, by using gossip. Everyone knows Daisy is Gavin's wife, but I'm just a little assistant. Her name is more important than mine. She's not afraid of looking silly, so why should I be?"After her grandmother's incident, Abigail wanted to take Paxton and go to the Guzman residence to confront them. But she saw how much money Xander had spent to help her, so she stopped herself. She did not go, but that did not mean she was going to let Daisy get away with it. She could still argue with Daisy.That Abigail would use gossip did not surprise Xander, and he believed she could make people think badly of Daisy. But he had to

Xander looked down at her hand that clutched the edge of his coat. His heart instantly softened. "Do you like being called Mrs. Zane?""I prefer Mrs. Hart," Abigail replied, because her marriage certificate had her husband's name as Nathan Hart, not Xander Zane. So she should be called Mrs. Hart.Xander was speechless. 'She always knows how to say something that really hurts my feelings.'As they walked down the long corridor, they got closer to room 8888. The door to the room was open. Even before Abigail saw anyone, she could hear the chatter inside.Stella said, "Everyone knows how much Xander spoils his wife, but we, his friends, haven't even met her yet."Susie chimed in, "I used to hope he and Abigail were together. They looked so good together. Too bad they're not.""Stop saying that, Susie," Stella warned. "They'll be here soon. If Xander hears this, it could be tough for Abigail.""It's just all in my head," Susie said. "I really hope Xander and his wife are happy toget

Stella was so mad that she stomped on Lucas's foot. She put all her weight into it, and the top of the foot was very sensitive, so it must have hurt. But Lucas did not even react to her stomp and kept kissing her.Alwyn teased with a laugh, "Lucas, you two seem eager to be alone. There's a room nearby, do you and your wife want to go there?"Alwyn was only joking, but it sounded very unpleasant to Stella. The joke made her feel like she was just a toy in the eyes of Lucas and his friends, something anyone could trample on. Two hot tears slid down her cheeks, but Lucas, who was kissing her really hard, felt them and suddenly let her go."What's wrong?" Lucas asked.Stella did not want Lucas to see her crying; she buried her face in his chest and wiped her tears on his shirt. When she looked up at him again, she was smiling. "Mr. White, are you done kissing? If you're done, please give me two minutes. I want to talk to Mr. Zane." Lucas squinted at her, puzzled. She ignored him and lo

Susie said, "I mean, you and Mr. Zane are a perfect match."Abigail replied, "Thank you."Stella chimed in, "Susie, let's stop chatting. Let Abigail tell us what's really going on with her and Mr. Zane."They all wanted to know, and Abigail did not hold back. "Our grandmothers set my husband and me up together. We got married when we first met."Susie said, "You sure were brave, getting married to a complete stranger when you first met."Stella told her, "Susie, let Abigail keep going.""Okay, I'll be quiet now." Susie quickly covered her mouth.Abigail continued, "After we registered our marriage, he gave me a bank card and said he had to go. He never contacted me again, so I forgot about it and kept working. I even forgot what he looked like. A year later, when I saw him at the office, I thought he looked familiar. But I didn't know where I'd seen him before. Only just recently, when I was moving, I found our long-lost marriage certificate. That's when I realized Xander was my

Susie continued, "I was waiting patiently for the barbecue stand owner to cook for me. After I paid and had just taken a bite, Alwyn showed up. Without saying a word, he grabbed the skewers from my hand and threw them into a trash can nearby. He yelled at me for eating unhealthy food, telling me I knew it could upset my stomach, but I ate it anyway. I know that street food might make me sick, but I just wanted to try it. There are lots of things I can't eat, and it takes away the fun in life." Remembering this, Susie added, her voice filled with anger, "I should've told him off to teach him a lesson, so he wouldn't dare to bully me again."Stella suddenly chimed in, teasing, "Does Alwyn want to be a dad or something?"Susie asked, confused, "What? Why?"Stella explained, "He treats you like a child. Maybe you should have a baby, and then he'll be too busy taking care of the baby to boss you around."Susie's eyes sparkled, and she exclaimed, "That's such a great idea! I'll have a da
